00:00.493 --> 00:03.640
- Operation Ham Grenade is an event

00:03.640 --> 00:07.560
where we get 90 hams from
the Air Force Association,

00:07.560 --> 00:09.550
and we get members that sign up

00:09.550 --> 00:11.980
and nominate other people
to get one of the hams

00:11.980 --> 00:12.920
for the Holidays.

00:12.920 --> 00:15.190
This year, we got a lot
more hams than last year.

00:15.190 --> 00:17.730
I think we got about 30
more hams than last year.

00:17.730 --> 00:21.610
The hams are for the members
of the 446th Airlift Wing,

00:21.610 --> 00:24.820
and we have a list of the 90 people,

00:24.820 --> 00:27.180
and we contact them once we get the hams.

00:27.180 --> 00:29.410
And it's just basically
a way of giving back.

00:29.410 --> 00:31.220
The Air Force Association brings them in

00:31.220 --> 00:32.470
and donates them to us

00:32.470 --> 00:34.630
at the Airman and Family Readiness center,

00:34.630 --> 00:36.741
and then we get a hold of people

00:36.741 --> 00:39.730
and make sure all the
hams go to anybody in need

00:39.730 --> 00:41.460
or anybody that just wants hams.

00:41.460 --> 00:44.100
It's just a way of showing that we care

00:44.100 --> 00:46.460
and that we wanna take
care of our members.

00:46.460 --> 00:48.430
It's an amazing program.

00:48.430 --> 00:50.910
People look so forward to this,

00:50.910 --> 00:52.350
and we're so thankful that

00:52.350 --> 00:56.130
the Air Force Association
gives these hams to us.

00:56.130 --> 00:57.713
It's great, it's a great program.
